Understory insectivorous birds are sensitive to fragmentation due to their limited dispersal abilities. This limited dispersal makes these species an important group for conserving the landscape connectivity. Through telemetry methods, banding individuals, capture-recapture techniques, and visual observations, we evaluated Chestnut-backed Antbird individuals (Myrmeciza exsul, a common nonmigratory understory insectivorous and forest specialist with low mobility), to determine the home-range size in two fragmented landscapes in
